fuck it i’m thinking about cherubs now so hold onto your asscheeks bc here are some headcanons
(about calliope, bc she’s such a fucking weird little skull lizard gremlin and i adore her)
also i’m sleep deprived so. this may not be coherent after a certain point
1) u know those lizards with the crest that flares up when they’re PUMPED? like. yknow. the scaly equivalent of the mighty cockatoo? bc cherubs have that. this little ridge that rests upon the top of the skull and is generally flaccid unless they get ridiculously emotional. then it’s…magnificent
2) they’re quasi reptiles but also harbingers of cosmic shit, so the bod temperatures are meant to withstand the horrifying cold of space while still being like, feasible for a biological thing. which is why i’m all aboard SOLAR POWERED CHERUB aka. idk man. they store heat? like a camel. but with…warmth. maybe they’re powered by love idk
3) bc calliope never got the chance to like, throttle her brother out of her system, she’s unfortunately never going to have the bod of a fully “mature” cherub, ie, no turning into a galactic leviathan upon arousal. instead….fuxking….lindworm. which is to say that dope ass dragon lizard shit with two lil legs and a big mouth but still like, feasibly imaginable by mortal means
4) i can’t feel my face
5) oh also. cherubs. got like. lil feathers and scales. i mean it’s mainly scales but there is fo sho some lil tony vestigial fluff up on those snake chickens. basilisk? idfk man
angel like comment subscribe i should probably sleep
what if she also
sprays perfume on her tongue to get a better smell
Oh these two cutsie dorks (wich I adore) from Homestuck.
If you’re not familiar with the mess that Homestuck is, we discover that these two are somehow related via ectobiology in Act 4 (of 7). That’s why it’s incest.
Basically when they said they were related I went “fuck you I’ll keep shipping them” 3 years ago and I’m still here. And people hate me for that apparently but whatever U_U
and people conviniently forget that other characters like vriska and terezi or eridan and feferi are related.
